Happy Easter everyone! It’s the perfect time of year to draw cute art of a character I don’t nearly draw enough but who makes me happy.
Fabergé, despite his own wishes, is a very Easter themed fellow. While he doesn’t like chocolate or being compared to an Easter bunny his artistic skills do make him a talented egg decorator. It’s a skill he finds very therapeutic, and it means he can leave them around as gifts to brings others joy without direct interaction (something he struggles with thanks to his crippling shyness).
The rare exceptions to this are Rabbiteen, with whom he can happily share his love of egg decoration, and of course his best friend Wunderlee. Wunder is mute so expresses joy in unique ways, many of which catch Fabergé off guard XD.
Easter CandyCorn is a thing that exists and I want it 😭

Fabergé
L'Uovo del palazzo di Gatčina è una delle uova imperiali Fabergé, un uovo di Pasqua gioiello che l'ultimo Zar di Russia, Nicola II donò a sua madre l'Imperatrice vedova Marija, nel 1901.
Fu fabbricato a San Pietroburgo nel 1901 sotto la supervisione di Michael Perkhin,per conto del gioielliere russo Peter Carl Fabergé.
L'uovo d'oro è coperto da vari strati di smaltato bianco traslucido su un fondo arabescato con tecnica ghiglioscé e dipinto con un delicato disegno di rose rosa e ghirlande di foglie verdi e oro legate con fiocchi di nastri rossi in una varietà di festoni.
File di perline dividono l'uovo in dodici pannelli: verticalmente in sei spicchi ed orizzontalmente lungo il bordo dell'apertura. Alle due estremità sono fissati diamanti tagliati come lastre sottili, probabilmente per coprire il monogramma e l'anno del dono, che però sono stati rimossi. L'interno è foderato in velluto.
La parte superiore dell'uovo si apre per rivelare una riproduzione in miniatura, in oro di quattro colori, della residenza invernale principale dell'Imperatrice vedova: il palazzo costruito a Gatchina, un villaggio 45 chilometri a sud-ovest di San Pietroburgo, per il conte Grigorij Grigor'evič Orlov ed in seguito acquistato dallo Zar Paolo I.
La miniatura riproduce nei dettagli anche l'area attorno al palazzo, sono presenti cannoni, una bandiera, una statua di Paolo I, ed elementi del paesaggio.

Someone at work was praising this girl in my team and called her the “Fabergé egg of the team.” What does that mean? She’s valuable? Highly decorated? She was owned by the Russian Imperial Family?
